Hotfix 1.1.3 – December 14th, 2018

Dear pathfinders,

Even while delivering our first major DLC, the Wildcards, we never stopped working with your feedback and suggestions. Here is the next batch of fixes and improvements we've made after your comments. Of course, we shall carry on with this work even after the DLC is out. The next big step for us will be Patch 1.2, which should become available in the middle of the January. In the meantime, we will keep reading your bug reports and monitoring your posts in order to resolve the most pressing issues in Hotfixes.

Please, pay attention that the size of this update is quite big because it includes the content of the DLC. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Please, be aware of the plot spoilers in the description below (in the Quest, Areas and Kingdom sections)!

Killing Nilak fails the "Reforged Blade" quest from now on. We hope this will make Amiri's "Test of Loyalty" result more clear for the players who have experienced this quest resolution.
The different ways in which Tristian's "Saving Grace" quest could get resolved don't influence the result of the "Test of Loyalty" event any more (the status of the quest still matters, however). We hope this will make the conditions of Jaethal's and Tristian's survival more clear for the players.
From now on, if during Jubilost's "Door to Nowhere" quest the player chooses to grant immortality to a random gnome (Nyrd), she will appear in Irovetti's Palace regardless of whether the player killed her before or not. This will allow Jubilost to survive his trial in the "House at the Edge of Time" after being saved by Nyrd.
From now on, Harrim survives the "Test of Loyalty" event with any successful completion of the "The Unmaking" quest now. We hope this will make Harrim's "Test of Loyalty" result more clear for players.

The Jabberwock battle scene could be triggered multiple times at the "Other World" area. Resolution: fixed.

Special buffs to help with the development of secondary kingdom stats were added.
Players can cancel unfinished events and projects now. In this case the events are considered failed. As for the projects, they lose all progress and players get back 90% of the project's cost.

Maestro Janush could be killed by spells like Phantasmal Killer during the "Cruel Justice" quest resulting in failing to start a corresponding cut-scene and inability to leave the area. Resolution: fixed.
The player could get the armor instead of the bow as a reward for the Ekundayo's "Bury the Past" quest in some cases. Resolution: fixed. The reward remains the same for affected saves.

Areas

Dialogues where Kalikke and Kanerah replace each other could end abruptly if the player clicks the dialogue options too fast, resulting in issues with the "Sorrowflow" quest and Call Forth Kalikke\Kanerah ability.

As the new year takes its course, we are happy to announce that we're ready to share Version 1.2!

This new pack of fixes and improvements is based on your suggestions we keep receiving both from forums and the in-game reporting system (available by pressing F11). Thank you so much for your contribution - your feedback lets us make the game better every day!

We know that a lot of our players are complaining about the long load times. It's a serious technical issue and, unfortunately, we cannot fix it in one fell swoop. However, we're doing our best to mitigate this pain. We have been able to greatly decrease initial loading time in previous patches. And there is a major improvement in Kingdom management interface we implemented in this patch that will eliminate loading time between different Kingdom UI windows. We keep looking for other things we could do to fix this problem, so stay tuned for further improvements!

Be aware that the update is really huge - you will have to download around 18 Gb! The reason the update is so big is that we are working on the loading time issue, so we had to repack almost all game data.

We would like to thank all of you who are sending us the bug reports with the typos. We are doing our best to correct them as soon as they are discovered. Thanks to you all, the Version 1.2 holds a large number of such fixes!

Finally, let us assure you once more that work on the Pathfinder: Kingmaker will not stop for a single day. Right now, the development team keeps working on the next patch which should fix - as we hope - all known issues that remain on our task list.

Sincerely yours,
Owlcats.

Patch Highlights:System: Loading times have been significantly reduced.New setting: you can now choose to significantly decrease loading times in kingdom management screens at the cost of higher RAM and VRAM consumption.
Multiple difficulty improvements in Chapters 6 and 7.New feature: you can now enable camera following. Just double-click a character's portrait or hit F to enable it and disable it by manually controlling the camera (WASD, arrow keys or pressing on the mouse wheel). Camera-following is also automatically disabled on battle start.New feature: to save yourself a loading screen, you can now hover your mouse cursor over the table in the throne room, and you'll see an exclamation mark if anything new has happened in kingdom management while you were gone.
The Storyteller now provides the total number of artifact shards needed to assemble an artifact.
Numerous visual and user interface improvements.

Please, be aware of the plot spoilers in the description below (in the Quest, Areas and Kingdom sections)!

Quests

During Nok-Nok's companion quest, the player could gain "Hero" and "Jester" points by making certain decisions and picking certain dialogue options. Gathering a high enough number of these points was the only way to open the relevant story paths for Nok-Nok during the quest arc's finale (and thus save him at the House of the Edge of Time later on). However, it was unclear how to gain said points, which lead to most players getting stuck with the quest arc's "bad ending" and Nok-Nok dying, even if they completed his quests in an otherwise appropriate manner. Resolution: we are streamlining this mechanic. The players will now always be able to select either the "Hero" or the "Jester" path for Nok-Nok during the quest arc's finale. Which path is open to them depends on what type of points they acquired more of.
A dialogue option discussing Valerie's scar didn't disappear from her dialogue even after completing her quest. Resolution: fixed.
From now on, Irlene will take the Chest of Genuine Gemstones from the player when the player delivers it during her quest.
The dialogue with Jubilost about the "Inconsequential debates" never ended if the quest was failed. Resolution: fixed.
In the "Twice-Born Warlord" chapter, being able to save Nilak (and Dugath, if he survived so far) depended on whether the player is doing the "Flintrock Grassland" area before or after confronting Tristian at the "Abandoned Keep" area. If the players come late to the Flintrock Grassland, they find Nilak (and Dugath) already dead. We removed this dependency from the conditions to Nilak's (and Dugath's) survival to make Amiri's personal quest more consistent.
The "Help Amiri kill another mighty monster" objective could be missing after completion of the "Help Amiri kill Tuskgutter" objective in rare cases. Resolution: fixed.
The "Ancient formula" objective couldn't be completed after "Experiment on a wererat and report to Bokken" objective. Resolution: fixed.
The "City of Hollow Eyes" area will now only be available after receiving the "Find the missing Defaced Sisters" objective of the "Along the Cold Trail" quest.
In some resolutions of Jaethals last personal quest, she could unexpectedly disintegrate, which made it impossible to correctly resolve the Test of Loyalty for Jaethal and Tristian at the House of the Edge of Time. Resolution: the underlying issue has been solved and will not reproduce itself. However, unfortunately, the affected saves cannot be fixed.
A weapon slot in Amiri's interface could remain locked after finishing her companion quests. Resolution: fixed.
Even after Jaethal would come to life, she could regain some of her Undead feats with time. Resolution: fixed.
In some cases during Ekun's "Bury the Past" quest, some of the enemy giants would not join the fight on their own, which made it impossible to talk to Ekun afterwards. Resolution: fixed. Those players who have already been affected by this bug (they see Ekun standing on his knees and cannot talk to him) need to kill the giants located one screen to the right.
In some cases, the game incorrectly interpreted the player's decisions taken after fighting Hargulka and Tartuk at the "Troll Lair" area. Resolution: fixed.
It was possible to accidentally fail Valerie's romance before it even begins. Resolution: fixed.
Executing Edrist Hanvaki could block further playthrough if Auto Kingdom Management was turned on (this would stop game time from moving forward). Resolution: fixed.
Mim Wobblegander no longer gets stuck on her way to Talon Peak. Resolution: fixed. For players with saved games where she is already stuck, she will be waiting for them on the top of the mountain now.
Some players could permanently lose access to Nok-Nok if they have seen a certain statue before they were supposed to during his personal quest. Resolution: fixed.
From now on, the "Saving Grace" quest will start no matter what the status of the "Hour of Rage" quest is.
If Stefano Mosconi is alive during the "War of the River Kings" quest, he will now correctly appear in the Throne Room to "invite" the player to Pitax.
During the Season of Bloom, the peasants that form the angry mob in front of your castle could make mistakes about the fate of a certain Lamashtu's priestess (located at the "Secluded Lodge" area) and some bandits ("Bridge over the Gudrin River"). Resolution: fixed.

Areas

The dialogue option to ask Kharne Vereel about his shady dealings during the Rushlight tournament is now locked until the player finds out about them from other characters.
Skill checks for the "Trial of Strength" and the "Trial by Pain" illustrated events could be triggered multiple times at the "Armag's Tomb" area. Resolution: fixed.
The "Wild Energies" debuff could get stuck on characters when leaving the basement of the "House At The Edge Of Time" area using the staircase to the second floor. Resolution: fixed. For affected saves where the party are still in the "House At The Edge Of Time" area, players have to visit the ruined basement part and leave it again to remove the debuff.
There could simultaneously exist two Tartuks at the "Ruined Warehouse" area in some cases. Resolution: fixed.
NPC banters disappeared too fast in Varnhold. Resolution: fixed.
Briar didn't disappear from the Inventory when players gave it to Nyrissa. Resolution: fixed.

The Incorruptible Petal glaive used to be in the "Whiterose Abbey" area and is in the "Pitax Royal Palace" area now. Vice versa, the Ring of Chaos item is in the "Whiterose Abbey" area.
